can anyone advise me on the lifespan and effectiveness of pea shingle rolled into VLS rubberised bitumen. This will be on top of a tarmac base and is for driveway use. 1 in 7 slope. We wanted gravel but the slope makes this a no no. Thanks

i have posted something similar regarding this, and the general answer was no. sounds like you need resin bound aggregate

you'd be better with an angular aggregate such as 10mm granite or similair
